From the reviews
Absolute best martial arts gym in Yuba City! I absolutely love the women’s class, an amazing workout and far surpassed my expectations for what fitness kickboxing is. You’ll definitely get a great workout with some amazing ladies surrounding you! Coach Mike is a phenomenal instructor.
Great gym! Great people! Great training! I have been here for about 5 years now and constantly learning and developing. When I first moved back to this area, it was hard finding a spot to train at again and ever since I have joined NorCal Fitness I have never regretted it.
For several months now, I've been bringing my kids to NorCal Fitness Co-Op (classes are welcoming and well-structured). They are fairly young and admittedly, aren't used to rough play, so compared to other kids, it has been a slower process to overcome the perception that jiu-jitsu is about "hurting people.
"We have three of our kids attending NorCal fitness and I cannot recommend this place enough! The coaches are phenomenal—they are patient, kind, and truly know how to keep the kids engaged while teaching them discipline, respect, and self-defense skills.
New to kickboxing? Start at NorCal Fitness Co-op
NorCal Fitness Co-op comes up as a beginner-friendly gym — noted on their own site. If you've never thrown a punch or a kick, that's exactly who a good beginners class is for. A few things worth knowing before your first week. First, you don't need to be fit or coordinated to start — you get in shape by training, not before it, and coaches scale every drill to you. Second, you won't be thrown into hard sparring — reputable gyms build the basics (stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads and bags) first, and any contact eases in gradually under a coach's control. Third, all fitness levels really are welcome — ask about a dedicated beginners or fundamentals class time so your first session is alongside others who are also starting out. Most gyms are happy to let you watch or try a class first, so reach out before you commit.
Your first kickboxing class at NorCal Fitness Co-op
Nervous about walking into a kickboxing gym for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good coaches expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a warm-up, then drilling the basics — stance, footwork, and punches and kicks on pads or a heavy bag — not hard sparring. Go at your own pace and rest whenever you need to; no one will bat an eye. What to wear: comfortable athletic clothes you can move and sweat in, and supportive trainers. What to bring: water, and hand wraps and gloves if you have them — many gyms lend loaner gloves for a first class, so it's worth asking when you call. As you keep training you'll add your own gloves and wraps (and shin guards once you start sparring). Sparring is optional and eases in gradually, once your basics are solid. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign a waiver and meet the coach. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
